So I've bought a few things from 3.0 over the years - going off memory here, but I think the first thing I bought was one of those Highspeed PC tech benches I think in 2009, then a BFG EX-1200 PSU in 2010, and then most recently a Supermicro 4P G34 mobo a couple weeks ago. I use each of these items every day.

3.0 keeps his stuff in immaculate condition through some feat of magic. I can only assume 3.0's secret to keeping his gear in such great shape is because he drinks unicorn blood. I generally make a rule of buying server mainboards new so that they are under warranty when they inevitably (or so it seems) go kablooey, but I did not hesitate for one iota of a nanosecond to buy 3.0's H8QGi when he offered it.

So if you are thinking of dealing with 3.0charlie, rest assured that you can buy with the highest confidence you can imagine. Actually, higher than that - buy with confidence beyond your wildest imagination.

Sold Mr. 3.0 a SuperMicro Quad opteron motherboard about 4 months ago along with some other items in a package deal. Somewhere along the line the motherboard sustained some damage to the socket and one of the ram clips. 3.0 was able to get the RMA rolling and had to pay out of pocket a little bit to have the socket repaired. There was great communication along the way and everything was straightened out eventually. Great guy to do a deal with. A++
